Journal ArticleDOI

The Proto-neutron Star Phase of the Collapsar Model and the Route to Long-soft Gamma-ray Bursts and Hypernovae

TL;DR: In this article, a 2D multi-group, flux-limited-diffusion MHD simulation of the collapse, bounce, and immediate post-bounce phases of a 35-Msun collapsar-candidate model of Woosley & Heger is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simulations of Magnetically-Driven Supernova and Hypernova Explosions in the Context of Rapid Rotation

TL;DR: In this article, the first 2D rotating, multi-group, radiation magnetohydrodynamics (RMHD) simulations of supernova core collapse, bounce, and explosion were presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrino signatures and the neutrino-driven wind in Binary Neutron Star Mergers

TL;DR: In this paper, VULCAN/2D multi-group flux-limited-diffusion radiation hydrodynamics simulations of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers, using the Shen equation of state, covering ~100 ms, were presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multi-Dimensional Explorations in Supernova Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the acoustic mechanism of core-collapse supernova explosions and the phases and phenomena that attend this mechanism have been discussed, and it is concluded that the breaking of spherical symmetry will survive as one of the crucial keys to the supernova puzzle.
